Nmr Structure Biology Biophysics information

What is NMR Structure Biology Biophysics?

NMR Structure Biology Biophysics is a scientific field that uses Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to study the structures, dynamics, and interactions of biological molecules like proteins and nucleic acids. Researchers in this field use principles of biophysics to interpret NMR data and gain insights into how biomolecules function at the molecular level. This approach is essential for understanding biological processes, drug design, and protein engineering, as it provides detailed information about molecular structure and interactions in solution.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an NMR Structural Biology Biophysicist, and why are they important?

To excel as an NMR Structural Biology Biophysicist, you need a solid background in biochemistry, molecular biology, and physics, typically with a PhD and experience in structural analysis. Proficiency with NMR spectrometers, data processing software (such as TopSpin or NMRPipe), and familiarity with related bioinformatics tools is essential. Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and effective collaboration are crucial soft skills in this field. These competencies are vital for accurately determining biomolecular structures and contributing meaningful insights to interdisciplinary research projects.

What are some common challenges faced by NMR Structure Biology Biophysics professionals in interpreting experimental data?

Professionals in NMR Structure Biology Biophysics often encounter challenges such as spectral overlap, sample instability, and low sensitivity, which can complicate data interpretation. Dealing with large or complex biomolecules may require advanced techniques and significant computational analysis to accurately assign resonances and determine structures. Collaborating closely with chemistry, bioinformatics, and structural biology teams is essential to overcome these challenges and ensure reliable results. Staying current with software and hardware advancements can also aid in addressing these common obstacles.

What is the difference between Nmr Structure Biology Biophysics vs Nmr Spectroscopist?

AspectNmr Structure Biology BiophysicsNmr Spectroscopist
Required CredentialsAdvanced degrees in biology, biochemistry, or biophysics; specialized NMR trainingDegree in chemistry, physics, or related field; NMR certification often preferred
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, academic institutions, biotech companiesResearch labs, pharmaceutical companies, academic settings
Industry UsageFocus on understanding biological structures and functionsFocus on NMR technique development and spectral analysis

While both roles involve NMR techniques, Nmr Structure Biology Biophysics emphasizes studying biological molecules' structures and functions, whereas Nmr Spectroscopist specializes in spectral data acquisition and analysis. The former is more biology-oriented, and the latter leans toward chemistry and physics applications.

Job description

The Leibniz-Forschungsinstitut für Molekulare Pharmakologie (FMP) belongs to the „Forschungsverbund Berlin e. V.“, an institution of seven natural sciences research institutes in Berlin funded by the Federal Republic of Germany and the association of its federal states. The research institutes belong to the Leibniz association.

The FMP is a non-university research institute that conducts basic research in molecular pharmacology and provides a vibrant and collaborative environment with state‑of‑the‑art facilities for research and employees from all over the world.

The FMP Research Unit Molecular Biophysics headed by Prof. Adam Lange is looking for two Ph.D. students in Biophysics/Structural Biology (m/f/d) (Ref. 03/2026).

We investigate the structure, dynamics, and function of membrane proteins (e.g. viroporins, potassium channels, rhomboid proteases) and supramolecular assemblies by an integrated structural biology approach focused on solid‑state NMR and cryo‑EM (Mohretal., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2025; Öster et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2025; Bohg et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2026). The PhD students will have the opportunity to learn how to produce membrane proteins using cell‑free expression and to perform solid‑state NMR as well as cryo‑EM. The latter aspects will benefit tremendously from outstanding available infrastructure on campus including a 1.2GHz NMR spectrometer and a Titan Krios cryo‑electron microscope. The positions are initially limited to three years; the expected start date will be in June2026.

Your profile:

Candidates with a background in (bio)chemistry, (bio)physics or related subjects and a strong interest in structural biology are encouraged to apply. Prior knowledge in (membrane) protein expression and purification, NMR spectroscopy, or cryo‑EM is not required but would be an advantage.

What we offer:
  • An attractive environment in a pleasant, friendly working atmosphere with an excellent infrastructure.
  • Compensation in accordance with the public collective bargaining agreement (TVöD Bund) including the usual social benefits, i.e. 30 days of vacation, annual bonus, company pension plan with the Versorgungsanstalt des Bundes und der Länder (VBL).
  • Work‑life balance (certified by Audit Beruf und Familie) as well as flexible working hours and the possibility of mobile working.
  • Health offers on campus (courses, fitness center, etc.).
  • Mobility offers such as job ticket, campus bikes and Jelbi station on campus.

We offer equal opportunities regardless of gender and welcome applications of disabled candidates. They will be preferred in case of equal qualification. We welcome applications from all backgrounds.

For further information about the Institute see www.leibniz-fmp.de. For questions please don’t hesitate to contact Prof. Adam Lange (alange@fmp-berlin.de).

How to apply:

On the FMP homepage please go to Job-opportunities and click first on this advertisement and then Apply online.

Please submit your application including a concise statement of research interest, CV, copies of degree certificates and contact information for two letters of reference, as soon as possible but not later than April 15, 2026.

We are looking forward to your application!
